ORH_wxman Posted February 2, 2011 Author Share Posted February 2, 2011 It would be funny if I got more snow on Saturday than today. I think you might. Saturday is a coastal with potential rapid mid-level cyclogenesis if it develops fast enough....it woul dput us in the interior in a great spot for prolonged heavy snow. This event had a putrid spot for the mid-level low. While that doesn;t mean no big snow...it generall waves a huge red caution flag on big amounts...it mostly says to stick to 6-10 amounts with maybe some 12" amounts.

CoastalWx Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Still 24 here in Revere. Will probably jump up within the hour if you're at 29. Probably less than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB-Weather Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Wow, at this rate will be above freezing at about 8:30 am lol. Branford shoreline is already at 36 degrees, not sure if accurate. For some reason my thermometer isn't working now so relying on nearby station which is at 28.2 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not reallya dry slot Well it was a dry slot but secondary redevelopment has really helped to throw in some Atlantic moisture so it has really filled in nicely...should keep us going a fer hours longer.

NB-Weather Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Not sure if this weather station is correct.. 5:40 temp was at 23.8 degrees, 6:40 it was at 28.2 degrees. If it is correct that is a huge jump in one hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CT Rain Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 I think these 18-24" or 20-25" forecasts up here are in jeopardy. As I say to Kevin constantly. Never expect 12"+ unless the 850/700 low goes underneath you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dryslot Posted February 2, 2011 Share Posted February 2, 2011 Judging by the speed of the system there will be some underwhelming totals relative to what was forecast in NNE. Not really, 2-3"/Hr rates won't take long to add up, Still in line for 10-15".. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
